Onaga Operator runs 45 certified beds as a for-profit LLC, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.90 hours per resident day, just barely over the national average of 3.86, roughly a 1% edge. The bigger staffing concern is weekends, which run about 15% below what the home covers on weekdays. Turnover comes in at 33.3%, notably better than the 45.8% national figure, so workers are staying longer than at the typical home. What drags the record down is inspections: 18 deficiencies, including 4 at the harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $51,274. The most recent inspection was April 30, 2026.

Good Samaritan Society - Valley Vista runs a lean ship on staffing hours, with 3.72 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday coverage. The trade-off shows up in turnover: 20.9% annually is less than half the national rate, so the people who are there tend to stay, which matters more than raw hours in a 45-bed home. Health inspections sit at 3 stars with 27 deficiencies on record, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and $26,525 in fines across two penalties. The last inspection was February 2024. Quality measures lag at 2 stars.

Westy Community Care Home runs a 40-bed nonprofit operation in Westmoreland, and the staffing numbers are genuinely its strongest point, 4.25 nurse hours per resident day sits about 10% above the national average, and weekend coverage only dips about 6% below its own weekday level. That's real direct-care presence. But the staff giving that care turn over at 65.3% a year, well above the 45.8% national rate, and that churn shows up elsewhere: 24 deficiencies on the current record, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, two tied to abuse. Two fines total $19,406. The last inspection was September 2024. Good hours on paper, but heavy turnover and a troubled inspection history.
